Benefits of technology

[0014]Aspects of the present invention provide a device, method and a computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for interacting with targets on a display, particularly in regards to devices utilizing a multi-touch display that are driven by many gestures. According to further aspects of the present invention, the interactions are suitable for mobile devices with touch-sensitive screens and can co-exist conflict-free with primary gestures while requiring minimal display space.

Problems solved by technology

In comparison, a tapping gesture attempts to hit a particular target and will suffer from a higher error rate as a result.
